Terrific, midcentury home in a popular Berkeley location! The renovated, open interior teams with a diverse & colorful yard to create a property that offers the best in comfort & fun. Beautiful hardwood floors, dual pane windows, stainless steel appliances, quartz kitchen counters, & a family room expansion are some of the highlights of what the homeowners like to call, their "ranchalow". A deck & sunny patio create a wonderful space for dining or relaxing in the private side yard; multiple raised beds in the front yard, along with a gray water system hookup, can help fulfill dreams of fresh-grown veggies & flowers; the large backyard features a lawn, fruit trees, a treehouse, a storage shed, & a reinforced, off-street parking space. Beyond this fenced Shangrila is a bustling neighborhood: the vibrant retail enclave of University & San Pablo Avenues with shops, cafes, & services. Close to a city park with play structures, the 4th St. shopping mecca, CAL, BART, & express bus to SF.
